Chereads / Unexpectedly Tangled / Chapter 11 - Another Day

Chapter 11 - Another Day

Ms. Williams ears flared up after hearing Loid's yell.

"Who got stabbed?!" she was panicking.

"You're really good at making your Mom worried" Yuji said punching Loid.

Ms. Williams came and checked on Yuji, "Where did you get stabbed? Who did it?" she asked.

"It was only a small cut, Ms. Williams I'm fine" Yuji stated,

"Still, let me see" she insist, Yuji lifted his shirt and showed her his back.

"See it's small" he said, but unknowingly the wound spans his whole back.

Ms. Williams was shock by what she saw, she hold his hands against her mouth. "This isn't small" she said.

"Are you okay?" her worried voice said, "Don't worry, Mom. I already took him to the hospital" Loid said.

"He's right Ms. Williams, I'm fine" he said trying to take her worry away.

"Okay okay but what happened?" she asked eagerly, "He save--" Yuji stopped him.

"There was a stampede and I got tangled up" Yuji lied, "This big wound?" she was hesitant to believe.

"Yeah, I should get up and pack up" Yuji said running upstairs. Loid followed him, "Why didn't you tell the truth, you were a hero in the story" He stated.

"Yeah that would stir things up, plus it would make your mother worry more" Yuji explained as he packs up his bags.

As he gets down, Ms. Williams was standing by the door. "You're not going anywhere Yuji, in that state, you'll just open up those stitches" she stands firmly.

"But-" he was about to complain, but Athena stood with her mother by the door, "Mom is right, you shouldn't move a lot brother Yuji" she said in her cute angry voice.

Yuji sighed, "Fine, maybe for another day" he said.

He goes back to the room, and place his stuff by the bed. He sat down and stared at the cap.

'Why did I do that?' that was not like me. I mean I am a good person, but I didn't know I'd risk my own for others' he deeply talks to himself.

As he stares on the blank ceiling, a message notifies on his phone. It was a random number.

"Who can it be?" he talks to himself.

He picks up the phone and press answer in speaker and toss the phone on the bed, "Hello?" he answered.

"Hello? Is this Mr. Isakawa?" A professional voice said. Yuji looks confused on who this was. "Uhmm, Yeah who might this be?" he asked politely.

"Good day Mr. Isakawa, this is Infinite Harmony Records" the man on the phone stated. Yuji jumped up from the bad.

"Uhmm Hello? What can I do for you?" he asked. "Some of the company's important personalities want to meet you for your heroic deed" he explained. Yuji doesn't want to get involve with them anymore.

"I would politely dec-" then it sounded like someone snatched the phone, "Just come already, 9 AM tomorrow at the companies entrance" a familiar female voice rudely said before hanging up.

Yuji's brows crossed, 'It's probably that woman', Momo comes to his mind. "Not going" he said.

Then a small voice has talked from the doors, "Maybe you should brother Yuji, the woman seems mad" Athena said.

Yuji laughed to brushed off what she said, "You shouldn't eavesdrop on people" Yuji said preparing to chase over Athena but Ms. Williams arrive.

"Don't even move a muscle" she said in a commanding voice. Yuji just sat down and listened to her.

"You sure you're okay Yuji?" she asked once more, "Yes Mom" he suddenly said. It took him a few seconds to realize what he said.

"S-Sorry, I meant Ms. Williams" he said slapping his forehead. "No need to worry, it's okay you can call me Ms. Williams or Mom anytime." she held a smile on her face.

 The day came by and to Yuji's surprised he find himself in front of Infinite Harmony Records' main entrance.

'What the hell am I doing here?' he asked himself, he was about to walk out, when someone puts an arm to his shoulders. "Just go in already" the man said.

Yuji looked and it was Mendel, he was again surprised. "What you're here again?" he was taken aback.

"Just have some errands inside" he replied smiling. After entering the building, Mendel stormed off and left Yuji behind.

"Hey wait, I shouldn't be here" he said lowering his voice after many people looked at him.

Yuji felt anxious and decided to walk out but then a young lady crossed her arms against his.

"Who is it this time?" he has fear in his voice, "Now that's disappointing" a bubbly voice said.

Yuji looked at the girl and it was Sana, he quickly bowed his head. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it that way" he said.

"HAHAHAHA you're cute, let's go everyone is waiting" she said, Yuji wasn't able to complain.

He walked with Sana, as they were walking people at the company keeps looking at them.

"Uhmm, Ms. Sana, I don't think we should walk crossed arms" he said flustered.

"Why? Aren't you a gentleman?" she pouts. 'Damn how can she be cute and attractive at the same time?' he talks to himself.

Yuji just shut up, and Sana smiled at him.

They walked inside a room and to his surprise everyone was waiting inside.

"W-wait, did you know?" he asked Sana, "Of Course" she said holding a peace sign with puppy eyes.

Yuji sighed and greeted everyone politely.

"There he is!" a man shouted sounding like the guy on the phone. Everyone looked at the door at Yuji, they all stood up and bowed to him.

Yuji felt anxious and also bowed down to his head, then suddenly. "We thank you for protecting our girls" they all said in unison.

Yuji felt warmth on his insides, "Did I do such a big thing?" those words slipped out of his mouth.

A man in his mid 40s laughed and walks toward him, "You're funny as well" he said before offering a handshake.

"Uhmm, would that be all?" he asked, "I have classes to attend to at noon" he said as he accepts the handshake.

"Damn this boy's cluelessness, can't you just skip school" the man asked, Momo then speaks, "Just like always" she said.

Yuji was surprised, "I can't skip school right now, it's my last year" he insisted.

"Then let's get it underway already" Mina said smiling at Yuji. He mouthed Thank you to Mina.

Everyone starts eating, Yuji felt awkward with everyone who tries to walk with him. He is not used to being the center of attention, so he felt so anxious.

Momo suddenly pulls him outside, "Hey wait, don't pull so hard my stitches will open up" he said as felt a slight pain on his back.

"Tsk don't be a baby and follow me" she said, they walked towards the hall. By the end of the hall is a room, a practice room to be exact.

"What do you want with me?" Yuji said looking at his wrist watch. "You look so dumb there" Momo said pulling him inside.

When they entered he saw Mendel and the other two girls by the floor eating. "Hey dude" he greeted as he eats.

"We already planned this yesterday" Mina explained. Yuji sat down with them.

"By the way, this was all Momo's idea." Sana said teasing Momo. 

"We sincerely, Thank you for what you have done for us" the three said. Mendel also nodded.

Yuji smiled at them, "It's not that much" he said, "How is that nothing? You almost died" Momo exaggerates.

"Calm down, fine it's big" Yuji said in an annoyed tone. Then the others laughed hard.
